The javascript date object
The javascript date object is the number of milliseconds passed from 1.1.1970 UTC. The date object has no time zone. Its value of milliseconds is always since 1.1.1970 UTC.
All access functions (except for value
) like day
, hours
, ... etc. return the values valid in the timezone of your system. I.e. hours
(of_value 0.)
does not return 0
but the hour in the timezone of your system at 1.1.1970 UTC.
If you have a date object d
and want the day, hour, ... in another timezone which has offset0
to UTC you can do the following:
let d0 =
add
((Float.of_int (zone_offset d - offset0)) *. 60000)
d
Then day d0
, hours d0
, ... are the values in the desired timezone.
